Live in US, Import duty or taxes on the D3??

[jchi2210]

Hello everyone, I live in the US and I was wondering if I will have any trouble with import duty or customs? Will there be a tax? I ordered 9 of the D3's. Any advice would be appreciated! I also ordered some psu's separately. I'm just wondering because I would like to be prepared if UPS showed up and I owed money or how does that work? Thanks!

Be prepared to owe some $.  Im waiting for 2 L3+,  Seems like if the value is over $2500, they will want fees.  For 2 L3+ it was only $36.   I got a phone call from customs wanting tax id or ssn.  I got the tracking numbers from them before i got them from bitmain.  i think the UPS app will also let you know that you owe import fees.  You can pay online, I think they take credit cards and paypal.  Didnt notice if there were other payment methods.  I think they also offered COD to the driver.

Over 2500 is subject to 3% tax.

So 9 of them will cost you.

FedEx will send you a bill

never had to pay 3% tax over 2500$ value , always used fedex

Dang I hope its not 3%! thats over 400! lol I paid through UPS because it was a little cheaper but I had also heard some people say UPS was better, what do you guys think? Anyone used UPS and been charged import fees? I guess I will just have to wait and see what they do.

On the one from INNOSILICON and from the other company unless you know some one you won't be able to dodge that import tax and id be care full even if you know some one in the GOV. it's still illegal in the US to try and dodge a 10 k item on any kind of taxes that's our report limit at banks etc .. or was, it may be lower now .I'd worry about those hidden taxes ..

Id rather buy high dollar item in the US any way ... and why we need a solid miner making company like in China here . Which i know will never happen the labor in china is cheap and other cost ...

And Yes UPS is better i wouldn't trust FedEx from past over seas buys and hidden charges but that's me even if they are cheaper are they really ...
